The AV-Star.com DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter provides a DisplayPort male and HDMI female connector, allowing you to keep your existing (HDMI) display while using a DisplayPort video card/source.

Supporting display resolutions of up to 1920 x 1200/1080p(HDTV), this cost-effective solution maintains the incredible graphical performance offered by DisplayPort, while eliminating the cost of having to upgrade your HDMI capable display to a display with built-in DisplayPort support.

This is a passive adapter cable that requires a DisplayPort port, meaning that DVI and HDMI signals can also be passed through the port.
